Great day at Bran Castle - We enjoyed this private day trip to Bran Castle and fortified churches. Our guide helped in navigating where we were going and what we were seeing. He then turned us loose on our own so we could see what interested us and at our own pace. He was always there to pick us up at our prearranged meeting point. We found this tour to be a nice overview of the area.

Great value for money, easy, convenient and enjoyable - Great tour, fantastic guide, picked us up straight from our hotel in a very comfortable new land rover. We very much enjoyed the three locations and our guide was quick to give us historical information and translated for us at ticket offices at each attraction.
